Waghorne, James2022
Book
The Melbourne University Union was and is the very heart of social life for students, and this book tells its story from its origins in 1884 until today. Spotlighted are students engaged in debate and activism, theatre and comedy, balls and bands. Described are changing visions of what a campus community should be. James Waghorne looks back at the Union's unique contribution to the University and to the world beyond. He sees the Union as the meeting place for convivial mixing and conversation and beginning friendships and associations that may last a lifetime.
